How to install RUU exe file? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I received my HTC One almost two weeks ago, I bought it as US unlocked from Amazon but turns out to be unlocked but not the US version. I have had Galaxy Nexus and never had HTC device before. Now, I want to convert to the developer edition, I understand I need to unlock the bootloader, S-OFF, change CID and MID, and then finally install the developer Edition RUU. How to do that? Things on Nexus were different. Is there a simple guide on how to do so? Thanks in advance!

Unlocking bootloader + custom recovey + root tutotials are easy to find in this forum. Official xda video guides at the root of htc one forum.
For s-off search for "revone" if your hboot is 1.44. Search for "rumrunner" for hboot 1.54 and up.
To change cid: "fastboot oem writecid xxxxxxxx" where you replace x by correct cid.

if it's not too much trouble, could you stick with one thread, your quadruple threading is neither helping you or the forum.
you change you mid same as cid (but use mid):
fastboot oem writemid PN0710000 <- whatever u want it to be
fastboot reboot-bootloader

I'm pretty sure you'd have to RUU. Not totally sure though....
Yes it is I've done it several times, do you won't to s-on? And return back to stock ? With hboot saying locked?

Running RUUs do not affect S-Off status.
Don't know if this is what you are trying to accomplish, don't believe it undoes anything, but might make it look stock, think there was another thread around somewhere, did not really read the thread.

You can always go back to s-on with the fastboot oem write secureflag3 command.
I am note sure if thats the exact flag number so find out first before running it.

Isn't one of the benefits of s-off being able to Ruu while being unlocked still? ¿
Sent from my One using xda premium
Do NOT run the secureflag 3 command to s-on. You will brick the phone. You need to run the ruu first so you have a stock, SIGNED hboot first. After the ruu is complete then go into fastboot and run
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
if you do it with the moonshine hboot on the phone it will never turn on again.

This is correct. You never want to writesecureflag with an unsigned hboot.
@mhsbrian That is what I said. Running an RUU doesn't affect your S-Off. You can run RUUs for different devices with S-Off if you tried. (but I wouldn't)

You didn't understand what I was saying. I'm saying in order to run a Ruu normally you have to relock the bootloader first before you can run it. With s-off, you can just Ruu without relocking I already understand that soff isn't affected by Ruu.

You can run the plug in eg1212 made for this phone and change moonshine hboot to read whatever you want.

What you need to do is, relock bootloader, run lastest RUU, unlock bootloader, s-off with revone (even tho you still are s-off), s-on with revone reboot into bootloader run writesecureflag 3, reboot to system, then reboot to bootloader and then run RUU one more time and bam you got locked bootloader again (not relocked)

[Q] S-off guide?

Ok so Im somewhat of a noob so I was wondering if any experts can help me out?
I wanted to get S-off on my HTC one so I can change my MID (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2322820)
I have a few problems with S-off?
Firstly, do I have to have my phone rooted to get s-off?
If yes, then I have to unlock the boot loader first and then root it right? If so can you give me a simple guide that shows how to unlock the bootloader followed by rooting?
Secondly, Can you give me a link to a SIMPLE guide to get s-off?

Yeah mine is Hboot 1.44.000 but before do the S-off tutorial, Should I unlock the bootloader and root the phone? or can I just do S-off?
Revone s-off can be run from a fully stock Rom, with no need to unlock the bootloader or rooting before. (Following the guide linked in previous post)

Using adb commands while booted in the stock Rom.
No you can be fully stock while using the revone guide if you don't want to unlock via the HTCdev method.
You only need to be rooted if you want to s-off without the use of a pc (using terminal emulator on your device).

I don't think you should be messing with S-Off when you don't really know what you're doing and haven't even got adb installed
Also, changing your MID can be risky and is a lot trickier than simple S-Off, which you should know how to do. I know someone who bricked their phone changing the MID.

I guess you are right. My knowledge is limited and I don't wont to brick my phone.
But on the other hand, I really need the 4.2.2 update. I have some problems with the current one.
Anyways, When I use fastboot, I get CID HTC__001.
Thats USA so I'm guessing it'll be a while for the update to come out huh? But my phone is not locked to any carrier.
How long do you think itll take before update OTA is available?
Thanks alot man

what is your device's MID ..? you don't have to mess with it if it's already PN0710000, changing the CID to HTC__Y13 should be enough to get 4.2.2 .. you can get your MID by typing fastboot getvar mid adb command ..

Thank you so much.
I started doing what you said before you put this post.
I did the same thing but in step 3 I just changed the CID to HTC__Y13 instead of fastboot oem writecid 11111111.
When I rebooted I got the update for 4.2.2 and downloaded it too. But when installing it reboots into recovery and says aborted.
Do I have to to steps 4 5 6 7 8 or is there way to just install the downloaded OTA?

it's better to follow the sequence .. a clean RUU install would solve any issues your device currently have ..

What's the reason u want to update to 1.54 ?

Alternatively since you are S off if you have stock ROM and stock recovery then
Adb reboot boot loader
Fastboot oem writecid 11111111
(Eight character cid) or substitute
HTC__001 for 11111111
Then fastboot reboot
Then when android is running check for software updates
You will get successive updates up to current 2.24.401.xx version including hboot 1.54
This will update hboot and firmware including radio
And remain S off (don't go back to S on while on 1.54 hboot)

Can I change my htc one's cid number?

my htc one's cid htc__032 but i want htc__m27? Is it possible? If it is possible, how can i do it?
Yes you can, providing you have S off
Use revone to obtain S off - Only works for hboot 1.44
When S off
fastboot oem writecid HTC__M27
Or substitute your preferred cid (8 digits)
111111 is supercid

Is it possible because my hboot is the google play edition hboot?

Found the problem...I had to downgrade hboot first before the ruu would flash...even with s-off.
